TUF 23 Finale Weigh-in Results: Jedrzejczyk and Gadelha Step Out of the Shadow to Make Weight
Though it was heavily overshadowed by Jon Jones being pulled from UFC 200 and the UFC 202 press conference featuring Nate Diaz and Conor McGregor, The Ultimate Fighter 23 Finale weigh-in took place on Thursday at T-Mobile Arena.
All of the fighters on the card made weight, making the championship main event between women's strawweight titleholder Joanna Jedrzejczyk and challenger Claudia Gadelha. The two coached opposite each other on the reality show.
